As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who should wear the starry crown
Good God show me the way
Oh sisters let's go down
Let's go down come on down
Oh sisters let's go down
Down in the river to pray
Had to wait for it
And then debate for it
But I remained encouraged
And had a faith nourished
Ain't no space tourists
Made a case for it
Mag north before this
Mics stray they cordless
Ma's chorus recorded
Star and crown awarded
Redemptive path is sorted
So settle it before court quick
Pray in secret behind closed doors lift
Up a joyful noise to the lord sing
The psalms of our rightful king
The narrow path of your course rings
In harmony with the meek who shall inherit the whole thing
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who should wear the robe and crown
Good God show me the way
Oh brothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Oh brothers let's go down
Down in the river to pray
Down in the river to
Souls been delivered new
Place he can live with you
No trace of the sins you do
Cuz ya faced the forgiveness news
And embraced this new living truth
All the ways you can win this choose
Jesus Christ on a level cruise
Advice of the devil snooze
Realize that the trebles you
New eyes that'll better you
No lies and a clever clue
My skies are forever new
No ties just a bow or two
And an arrow pointed at the truth
If annointed then that's the proof
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who should wear the robe and crown
Good God show me the way
Oh sinners let's go down
Let's go down come on down
Oh sinners let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who should wear the starry crown
Good God show me the way
Oh sisters let's go down
Let's go down come on down
Oh brother's let's go down
Down in the river to pray
